It’s a very interesting driver dynamic over at Aston Martin F1
‘Lawrence Stroll won’t like Fernando Alonso overshadowing his son at Aston Martin’A respected Formula 1 observer has claimed that team owner Lawrence Stroll will not be enjoying watching Fernando Alonso upstage his son Lance and become the centre of attention at Aston Martin.
Aston Martin’s strong start to the 2023 season continued at last weekend’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, where Alonso finished third behind the Red Bulls of Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen having also finished P3 at the season opener in Bahrain. Alonso’s team-mate Lance recovered from a pre-season bike accident to finish sixth in the first race of 2023, but retired after just 16 laps in Jeddah with an engine issue – having made arguably the overtake of the race on the first lap around the outside of Carlos Sainz’s Ferrari.since succeeding Sebastian Vettel over the winter, former Williams and Ferrari team manager Peter Windsor believes Stroll Sr will have mixed feelings about the two-time World Champion becoming the centre of attention.
“This is Fernando almost becoming bigger than the team and [Stroll will be thinking] what’s happening with my son? Why’s he retired? What’s going on?” “I’m probably exaggerating there and probably it will not be that, but I’m just suggesting that is a sign that this is a very different sort of team.”
